Day Six - A cold trip to Wellington

King Parrots at feeder

4 kilometers after Two Mile Flat you turn down Twelve Mile Rd to Twelve Mile.

Hay shed along the way.

Hidden Valley Rd isn't hidden any more.

I name this rock formation 'Four Fingers Rock'. It looks
like they buried a giant and he's trying to dig his way out.


Shearing shed near Dripstone.

Hakea clavata.        We spent some time at Burrendong
Botanic Garden & Aboretum on a chilly autumn day.

Eucalyptus websteriana

Looking towards Lake Burrendong.

Grevillea maxwellii

In the Fern Gully shade area.
